SuperRegionals in 2008

Okay so, from what I have gathered, dang near everyone thinks there favorite event is going to be a super regional, or has thought it was going to turn into a super regional. I've heard kids/mentors from different events saying it. Ive heard the likes of Florida, UTC, and NJ, as well as a few others.
Now, I just wanna know where everyone gets this "Information." Has FIRST directly told any of these kids/mentors?
I doubt it.
From what I'd imagine, FIRST has no idea if there will be another superregional, ever.
This really just is a rant, but I guess the point I'm getting at in general is, don't post rumors as facts, unless you have hard evidence of the rumors being true.


(Sorry if this sounds mean/negative, it is not the intent, I've just heard it for a while now, and noticed someone posting it so matteroffactly in another thread, it kind of set me off.)

If you do say something that isn't just for fun or praising something, which hopefully you do, just be prepared to back up what you said.

Anything that I post is an opinion from my own mind. Some may agree with it, others may not. However do not negatively associate anyone else, including any team I work with, with my opinion.
